Not cool.

So, after I turned down the most recent profile, I ended up sending my coordinator an email basically just letting her know that I'm getting discouraged. It's not that I'm starting to think this may never work out, but I AM starting to think that they may just be throwing profiles at me and hoping one sticks, rather than looking closely into what I'm looking for and sending me that. There are a million details that go into profile matching, so I totally get that it's not easy. You've got my preferences, theirs, legalities, insurance issues, etc. that all have to match and then you have to hope that both parties actually like the other. It's no easy task and I get that, but at the same time... I start to feel like a real jerk after turning them down, week after week for reasons we have already discussed. Anyway, my coordinator responded and actually CC'd the matching director so she could give me a call to discuss things, which she did.

We talked for a long time last Friday and by the end of the phone call she had sent me a profile to review. I LOVED them. They seemed absolutely perfect and for the first time since April, I was SO hopeful. Today I got a call from my coordinator letting me know that they loved me and my profile, but they declined to move forward with me due to my profession. She said they have "preconceived notions of network marketing that unfortunately they cannot move passed".

Well... cool. Part of me wants to completely rage out because I think that's total BS. I literally get paid to help people fall in love with their bodies and get out of debt. I get the privilege of  educating people on plant based products that work to actually IMPROVE their health. I help bring mommies home to their babies. I help parents start savings accounts for their kiddos to go to college one day. I help college students pay off their student loan debt. I help people pay for their cars, trips, classes and more in CASH. I've helped bring DADS home to their families full time and I've helped thousands of people fall in love with their health for the first time in years. I get to do this from the comfort of my home while I hang out with my own family and to be honest I think it's pretty freaking kick ass. The other part of me feels sorry for them. It must really stink to be so narrow minded, so I will just pray. I will pray that nobody picks them apart and decides there's something about them or their line of work, or the way they dress or where they live that determines what they think of them. Because it sucks, and nobody should feel this way. Nobody should be looked at differently and not given a chance just because they are doing what they love.

Clearly they are just NOT the match for me. Back to the drawing board we go... hi ho. hi ho. hi ho.
